The number of campers will be limited. The deadline of accepting applications is Friday, May 27, 2011.
This is the 7th annual Summer Day Camp for children between the ages of 8 and 13. Camp is designed to create a positive relationship between the children of our community and our police officers.

Officers will emphasize the importance of the four core values of “Cop Camp”, RESPECT, INTEGRITY, HONESTY, and TEAMWORK.
